To people with an interest in the SSN ontology,
A new W3C working Group "Spatial Data on the Web" has been proposed to improve the ease-of-use of the Semantic Sensor Network Ontology and to develop it into a formal W3C Recommendation (ie standard).
There is an arrangement with the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) to work together and to propose it dually as an OGC standard. There are also an number of other related activities on other important vocabularies to be undertaken in the Working Group.
You can see the Charter for the Working Group here http://www.w3.org/2014/spatial/charter
In the first instance, I urge you to forward this email to your organisation's W3C AC rep to indicate
support as described below.
Yours,
Kerry
